Hey, I got banned for like 3 weeks for saying something negative about a player, but was recently reactivated.Dex has been very silent of late. Hope he is alright, not sick or anything.
I called this game a Purdue win, because Crean always opts single coverage on Purdue's big men. First four possessions of last night's game, Purdue scored in the paint (I believe 3 baskets were by Hammons), and once IU switched to double Hammons, Haas and Swanigan every time they touched the ball.....it made all the difference.
Crean (presumably) made the adjustment, and as such he deserves credit. But you know, he is not known for his adjustments (watch the MSU game, for instance). If they play like that, and Williams plays within himself, the team will be a candidate for a deep tourney run.
